It can be either. You can even go LGBTQPIAAP Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Questioning, Pansexual, Intersex, Allied, Asexual, and Pansexual. Honestly, its too fucking much. Just come with some goddamn blanket term that means not strictly straight. You know what? Hence forth I proclaim everyone that isn't strictly straight to be crooked. Deal with it. If you are allied you don't get a letter, because fuck you, you just don't deserve one.

Progressive, theres your blanket term.

Power to everyone for seeking support.
But most of these are completely unrelated.
Bi? That's either a straight person that also kinda likes their own gender or gay that also likes the opposite gender. It's a lifestyle choice.
Transgender: Has absolutely nothing to do with homosexuality. That was clearly established in the other topic.
And the recent addition of Questioning and Allies is just ridiculous. As if the club is now open to muggels/straights that weren't allowed in before.

It's a coalition of outcast and oppressed groups. Why is that a problem for you?

Because a line has to be drawn somewhere. Atheists are outcasts too. Racism is still a thing. Why not vegans?

Aspiring optimist
Eternal Pragmatist.
With the uncanny ability to see all sides in every argument.

I am not gay and I am not straight. I AM bisexual. Sorry I don't fit into your monosexual box. Well no I'm not sorry. I am a woman with a great capacity for love, and unlike some gender isn't a factor. That doesn't mean I don't have preferences when it comes to looks, or that I don't have standards. As a matter of fact I'd say it makes me very picky. But it's people like you who make it hard for me to find a place in the queer community. Thanks for making me feel like just another letter in the acronym.

Some people have labeled me pan and some have labeled me bi personally I don't see don't see the for the labels. And there is huge overlap in pan/bi-ness. As I rate myself about a 3.6 on the Kinsey scale, I don't really care but I can't stand biphobes.
